© 1960: A collection of 2 stories by Robert A Heinlein. 1st printing of 1971 paperback edition:- Contents: Gulf / Elsewhen:- Synopsis: The Federal Bureau of Security sends one of its top agents to Earth from the Moon carrying a spool of microfilm of incalculable value. He arrives disguised as a commercial traveller, but quickly transforms into Captain Gilead - explorer and lecturer. There are people on earth who will go to any length to relieve him of the film - and they are not deceived for long by his disguise. They begin to close in on him when time intervenes:- Review(s): "This story of interplanetary espionage is the 'Dean of Science Fiction' at his very best. In 'Assignment In Eternity' Robert Heinlein, Hugo and Nebula award winner, has seldom been more compulsively readable. Sit back, and take a trip with the master into elsewhen":- (original cost £0.25 (5')).

Terms of sale
All books offered for sale are complete and sound (any missing / loose pages or cracked / broken spines will be mentioned in the book description).

Book sizes, where given, are to the nearest ¼". Each book has then been graded according to its condition, taking into account the degree of creasing to the covers and/or spine, presence of scuff marks or tears, any pen marks or inscriptions & any page tanning.

If, for any reason at all, you are unhappy with your purchase, we offer a no quibble, money back guarantee within 30 days of purchase.
